@ToddGroves There is an update coming for 2017 but it's not for fixing this. Your issue sounds like an old issue that happens with Dell and Alienware machines.

If you have Dell Backup and Recovery or Alien Respawn installed, then please uninstall it. There is a component in there that is preventing HitFilm to work correctly and unfortunately there is nothing we can do, the only solution is to uninstall the Dell / Alien software completely. This issue affects other software as well like Maya and 3DS Max (and potentially a lot of other ones as well).
